Noise expresses exponential growth under regime switching [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Consider a given system under regime switching whose solution grows at most polynomially, and suppose that the system is subject to environmental noise in some regimes. Can the regime switching and the environmental noise work together to make the system

Optimization of a Third-Order Gradiometer for Operation in Unshielded Environments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The optimum geometry of a third-order gradiometer for operation in unshielded environments is discussed. The optimization result depends on the specific signal and noise conditions. The fetal heart is considered as an example of the signal source.

Simulation Analysis of Coupled Structural Vibration of Highway Railway Combined Bridge Induced by Overlapping Action of Vehicle and Train

open access: yesGeofluids, 2022
In order to study the dynamic response of bridge coupling caused by the overlapping of vehicle and railway dynamic loads, by using the time-domain samples of pavement irregularity compiled by MATLAB software and the secondary development function of ...

Acoustical barriers in classrooms: the impact of noise on performance in the classroom [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
There is general concern about the levels of noise that children are exposed to in classroom situations. We report the results of a study that explores the effects of typical classroom noise on the performance of primary school children on a series of ...

Regression of Environmental Noise in LIGO Data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We address the problem of noise regression in the output of gravitational-wave (GW) interferometers, using data from the physical environmental monitors (PEM).

Road tunnel-derived coarse, fine and ultrafine particulate matter: physical and chemical characterization and pro-inflammatory responses in human bronchial epithelial cells

open access: yesParticle and Fibre Toxicology, 2022
Background Traffic particulate matter (PM) comprises a mixture of particles from fuel combustion and wear of road pavement, tires and brakes. In countries with low winter temperatures the relative contribution of mineral-rich PM from road abrasion may be

Flying green from a carbon neutral airport : the case of Brussels [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The aviation sector is one of the fastest growing emitters of greenhouse gases worldwide. In addition, airports have important local environmental impacts, mainly in the form of noise pollution and deterioration in air quality. Although noise nuisance in

Potential role of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons as mediators of cardiovascular effects from combustion particles

open access: yesEnvironmental Health, 2019
Air pollution is the most important environmental risk factor for disease and premature death, and exposure to combustion particles from vehicles is a major contributor.

The importance of mineralogical composition for the cytotoxic and pro-inflammatory effects of mineral dust

open access: yesParticle and Fibre Toxicology, 2022
Background Respirable mineral particles represent a potential health hazard in occupational settings and ambient air. Previous studies show that mineral particles may induce cytotoxicity and inflammatory reactions in vitro and in vivo and that the ...

Characterising a solid state qubit via environmental noise [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
We propose a method for characterising the energy level structure of a solid-state qubit by monitoring the noise level in its environment. We consider a model persistent-current qubit in a lossy resevoir and demonstrate that the noise in a classical bias
